Hey Froggy! is a board game released in 2012 for 2–4 players, 10 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Anthony Rubbo.
Game description from the publisher: The frogs have gathered for a race at the old watering hole! But with limited lilypads and plenty of frogs, they tend to pile up on top of each other. To reach the finish line in Hey Froggy!, you need to move the right frogs to the top of the piles to match your cards. The more you match, the farther you jump! Eat flies to get more chances to jump. First across the finish line wins!
Hey Froggy! supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Hey Froggy! is 10 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Hey Froggy! for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
